It's 2019 and gamers still expect that developers can just add massive features in a week to any game because a modder could make it

Each feature that makes its way into the game is almost always a product of many people on the team. It's not just one person, even if the majority of the design or implementation were done by just one person. It's always a group effort, no matter what.
